Connecting the DTXPLORER’s pads to the main unit

Refer to the illustration below and connect each pad’s output cable to each Trigger Input jack on the rear panel of the DTXPLORER.
All Trigger Input Jacks are labeled (1 SNARE, etc.) so make sure each pad is connected to its corresponding Trigger Input jack.
* The DTXPLORER’s settings will provide optimum performance when pads (1 SNARE, etc.) are connected to their corresponding Trigger
Input jacks, however, if other pads or drum triggers that have different operating characteristics are connected to the jacks, settings for
sensitivity, etc., as described in the “Trigger Setup Edit” section (P. 24) should be changed.

CAUTION

To prevent electric shock and damage to the devices, make sure the power is switched OFF on the
DTXPLORER and all related devices before making any connections to the DTXPLORER’s input and
output jacks.
The DTXPLORER can be played from an acoustic drum kit if the kit is fitted with an optional set of Yamaha DX20 Drum Triggers and the
triggers are connected to the DTXPLORER’s input jacks.
* After making connections, make sure settings in the DTXPLORER’s trigger setup (P. 24) are properly adjusted.
